caused by the rumors In regard the loans
made by the Ives syndicate entirely lisap-
peared to-day, aud the temper OF the
market underwent marked change for the
better. There was renewed buying for the
long account, aud the shorts began 10 run,
which quickly recovered the losses OF yes
iciday Tor most Of the active stocks. The
room traders who have been bearlsh to II
man, became divided in opinion, and their
operations lacked the vim OF the past few
days. London was again liberal pur-
chaser, and more out OF town orders TO buy
were reported by commission people than
has been seen for long time. The poor
showing Of the earnings reported by the St.
Paul together with free reallzatlons checked
the advance at noon, and though there was
no decline Of any consequence, there was
no upward movement thereafter. A feel
Ing OF nervousness was current among the
traders who are apprehensive OF deal "
some sort being sprung upon the market.
The interest was monopoiZed by half
dozen stocks, while the remainder were
quiet to dull.
The opening was irregular but generally
strong at advances extending to per cent,
There was large business IN few stocks,
prices were firm TO strong throughout the
list, and material advances were recorded
In the first hour. After slight recession
the upward movement was renewed and
still higher figures were established. The
rise was checked sho,tly before noon, after
which the market remained dull and steady
until the last hour, when IL became firm once
more. The close was quiet but firm at or
near the best figures reached.
